I think I'm ordering Brembo blanks in the nexts few weeks... might spend a bid more for the the slotted ones... $45 vs $55
Don't get cheap slotted rotors or you'll be sorry. There are a lot of shops that slot the Brembo blanks and sell them as Brembo slotted rotors. Cheap slotted rotors will warp fast due to the add'l heat from the slots. Also they make noise.

LOL, the metra kit is a lot easier than what I'm doing!

I got my mirror tilt module and my 80mil rattletrap, so I guess today is a car day!
